Pelvic abscess is a relatively uncommon condition in current surgical practice. However, candidates for higher surgical degrees have shown an inadequate knowledge of the management of the various types of pelvic abscess. This observation includes candidates confining their activities to the surgical aspects of gynecology. It is considered, therefore, that a contribution on the subject of the management of pelvic abscess is justifiable.
